L. E. J. Brouwer (in his 1908 opening salvo against David Hilbert's mathematical formalism and the Law of the Excluded Middle) is clearly channeling Schopenhauer 
Here's Schopenhauer, footnote 40 in §15 of Volume I of WWR "what is true and excellent in [Spinoza's] doctrine is in his case, as in that of geometry, quite independent of the proofs." 
Here's a new translation of the Brouwer if you are as weird as I am arxiv.org/pdf/1511.01113.pdf
Apparently I did another thread on this topic
Still thinking about this. Hilbert on mathematics: "In the beginning is the sign." Doesn't get much more theological than that!
Brouwer seems much more appealing in this day and age, does he not?
